The new law does not eliminate the deduction for state sales tax. Instead, it limits the deductible amount. Under the new plan, taxpayers who are able to itemize will be able to deduct their
state individual income, sales and property taxes up to a limit of
$10,000 in total.
Remember that many taxpayers who are used to itemizing likely won't be doing so this year (2018) because of the big increase in the standard deduction.
